Last day in Punta Leona near Jaco, waiting for transport, heard a bird call across the street in a large tree, went to investigate. Spotted him, but I didn't get many clear shots. He kept screening behind foliage. Marveled at his extra long tail.

On a bug infested walk along the bic path out of Ayer's Cliff, I spotted this bird in some distant shrubs. Couldn't get closer. From the shape, I thought I saw a cuckoo, but didn't know we had them here. I was somewhat confused till I got to see the book. Requested by S.B.

There was a flock of these Tanagers feeding on the fallen palm fruit, but wary of people on the other side of the hedges & walkways. Hotel grounds.
